00:04This week we're taking a look at the beautiful 2022 M440i Coupe, a longer, wider, and lower coupe than the
00:12popular 3 Series.
00:18I love the beautiful San Remo green color, the 19-inch wheels with red calipers, front and rear diffusers, rear
00:26quad exhaust, and a spoiler.
00:28It also has carbon fiber mirrors.
00:31Under the hood you'll find a heavily braced 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline 6-cylinder, putting out 382 horses
00:38and 364 pound-feet of torque.
00:42It's hooked to an 8-speed automatic with paddle shifters.
00:460-to-60 time is 3.8 seconds, top speed is 157.
00:51My tester is rear-wheel drive, but I prefer the X-Drive all-wheel drive system, which is available.
00:59Like all BMWs, you get a luxury interior with bolstered leather seats to hold you nicely in place in those
01:06hard turns.
01:07A configurable 12.3-inch gauge cluster greets you as you push the start button.
01:13There's a large head-up display with traffic sign recognition that you see on the windshield.
01:17Then high on the dash is an 8.8-inch iDrive screen to operate the sound system, the navigation system,
01:25Bluetooth, car settings, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a host of apps.
01:30The center console is loaded with controls, including the knob to operate the iDrive screen, auto hold, the drive modes
01:38to change the way the car performs, and, of course, iKeep it in sport mode.
01:43There's also a wireless charger, cup holders, and USB port behind a sliding door.
01:48Everything is well laid out and easy to operate.
01:52Access to the back seat is easy with a handle to electronically slide the front seat forward.
01:58Just know the back seat is cramped and only useful for small children.
02:03My 440i comes well equipped.
02:05This one has ambient lighting, keyless remote, heated but not cooled seats, a heated steering wheel, and dual power seats.
02:14Safety features abound, including blind spot monitoring, front and rear park assist, collision alert, a terrific rear view camera, and
02:22much more.
02:23This sport coupe drives like a dream.
02:26Handling is incredible.
02:28The steering is weighted just right with terrific feedback, and the acceleration is insane.
02:34Using the shift paddles enhances an already great BMW driving experience.
02:39Fuel economy is amazing at 25 in town, 34 on the highway, and 28 overall.
02:46Total MSRP as equipped is $67,321, which is in line with its top competitors.
02:54In summary, this is a driver's car and will put a smile on your face every single time you hit
03:01the start button.
03:02Thanks for riding along with us today for another CarPro test drive this week featuring the 2022 BMW M440i.
